Make Money Online Designing with Micro-job sites

In the last few posts I have been talking about ways to make money online as a designer. This post is about ways to make money online as a designer using micro-job sites. I will be using Fiverr.com as an example as it is the most popular and well known of the micro-job sites.

From logos to advertising banners, Wordpress themes to YouTube backgrounds, the web is full of graphics and images someone had to make, design, produce.

Here are 6 ways to make money online from your designs using Fiverr

Design Forum Signatures

Forums, well, what can I say? Forums are well known on the net so I don't think I need to explain what they are or the importance of them. But, the concept of Forum Signatures may be a little foreign to a few.

Forum Signatures are footers at the end of a forum post which is usually customisable via profile settings. Forum signatures can be customised using plain text or using HTML and BBcodes depending on which forum software the webmaster uses , and how they have set it up .

Forum signatures are the perfect place to advertise your business, company, blog....anything! More and more people are seeking low cost designs for advertising needs and I think this is one area that is yet to be properly utilised.

If you have knowledge of Photoshop and forums this will be perfect for you.

Design Avatars/Profile Pictures

The same as forums, I don't think I really need to go into avatars. Many people are trying to incorporate their brand into their social networking profiles but don't have the capabilities or funds to produce high quality high impact designs. That's where Fiverr and other micro-job sites are filling a gap in the market, but they can't fill that gap without designers.

Design Youtube Backgrounds

I haven't had the opportunity to get into Youtube design as much as I would like, but I have come across some Youtube profiles that have made me want to watch from the design alone. If you have an eye for design and branding this could be a very profitable gig to try.

Design Faceboook fan pages

Just like the above, Facebook design is an area of the Internet that is not properly utilised. If you've been on facebook for a while you would have seen the various designs people have come up with. Remember, some people don't have the design skills you do, micro-job sites are a great way of getting quality graphics at an affordable price.

Software box cover design

Software is being created at an astonishing rate and someone needs to create the logos, the websites, the branding etc This can be a great way to make money online. Why not help people out by providing high quality box cover designs at an affordable price. If you market your product right you will get a ton of orders.

PSD to HTML conversion

Plenty of people can use Photoshop and come up with brilliant website mock ups, but a lot of them cant code their designs into HTML and CSS, let alone into a Wordpress theme. If you have skills that allow you to do this, why no share them with people over at Fiverr and make money online.

Tips:

If you are going to use Fiverr to earn money online from your designs, make sure that you join as many of the other micro-job sites as you can. This will increase your chances of making a sale.

If you know you wont have access to the net for a while, suspend your gigs. This will prevent negative feedback from not completing orders on time.

Reveiw: Fiverr.com, Make Cash with Micro-Job's

In March 2010, online entrepreneurs Micha Kaufman and Shai Wininger launched Fiverr.com, the world's first "microjob" site.

The microjob concept is simple and yet immensely appealing:  Spend a few minutes working  and get a small payment.  Work many such jobs and suddenly Fiverr starts to look like a genuine income stream.

The key to success on Fiverr is planning.  

Make sure the task you want to perform will take less than an hour and that your schedule can accommodate many small  tasks if need be.  That last is important as some Fiverr users have found success beyond their expectations.

Once such freelancer is writer FruityFia (Fiverr encourages anonymity).  She has a full-time job and a family of eight, with 4 children between 5 and 15 years old, so for her, getting a second job just isn't an option.  Her offer, writing 300 word articles for websites, is so popular she processes 10-20 orders a day, writing after the kids go to bed or whenever she can spare a moment.

While it's true that Fiverr keeps $1 out of every $5 and PayPal transfer fees are typically 8 cents, that's $39.20-$78.40 per day she wouldn't otherwise earn.  For the first time last Christmas FruityFia was able to pay cash for gifts and avoid the dreaded January credit card bills.

If writing's not your forte, how about crafts?  

Do you create handmade and distinctive jewelry?  Several Fiverr sellers specialize in making small food objects out of modeling clay.  Make photo collages, origami roses or greeting cards.  $5 isn't the limit here; you can also set a reasonable amount for shipping your finished creation.

Listing your task or craft (Fiverr calls it a gig) is free.  So what are you waiting for?
